YOUR SCALE AFFECTS FINANCES

Scales can cost your business money if you don’t pay attention to:

  • Accuracy: The profitability of every transaction on a scale depends on its accuracy.
  • Reliability: Downtime causes disruptions and increases operational costs.
  • Service: The quality and cost of maintenance and repairs to keep the scale operational can grow dramatically over time.
